Once you change the root file name for the NC Drill, it writes that data to the nc_param.txt file for that project. If you open that file up in a text editor, delete the line that is setting the file name, save and rerun NC Drill, it will default back to its original behavior.

Running NC Drill has been working great until now. How can I force it to name the .drl file whatever the .brd (design name) is. I changed the ncdrill output filename to test.drl, now it always comes up as test. It no longer automatically names the output .drl file the same as the root brd. I also tried having NO NAME in the Root File Name field. Still no luck!
